Attorney: Ridgway likely to plead guilty to new murder charge
Source: Seattle Times

The attorney for the Green River killer says Gary L. Ridgway is expected to plead guilty to a count of aggravated murder filed Monday in connection with the slaying of a 20-year-old woman who vanished after leaving a SeaTac motel in 1982.
...
The woman, Rebecca "Becky" Marrero, was long believed to be a victim of Ridgway, who confessed to her slaying when he agreed to plead guilty to 48 other murders eight years ago in a deal that spared his life. But it wasn't until December, after three teens stumbled upon her remains in an Auburn ravine, that prosecutors had the evidence they needed to charge Ridgway on Monday with her slaying.
...
If Ridgway decides to plead not guilty, he could jeopardize the earlier plea deal and could potentially face the death penalty, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office.
...
"In the end it wasn't about what Gary Ridgway deserved. He deserved no mercy; he deserved the death penalty," Satterberg said on Monday. "In the end it was about what the families deserved."

I think Dan Satterberg said it well. This is about what the families deserve.

1. Actually one of the vitims was killed by an afgan, my sister knew one of the victims
Edited on Tue Feb-08-11 08:32 PM by RandomThoughts
My sister was dating a guy that left afgan in 80s

One of he vitims was a gf of another afgan that thought all women were like prostitutes. He got jealous, then the gf disappeared. When that victim disappeared, all her personal stuff was still in the house that group shared.

At the time my sister said she thought that afgan was the GR killer.
